Summary
PTP4A2 (protein tyrosine phosphatase 4A2, HGNC:9635) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1p35.2, encoding Protein tyrosine phosphatase type IVA 2 (Q12974). Protein tyrosine phosphatase which stimulates progression from G1 into S phase during mitosis. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 17.9% of cell lines).
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a small class of the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family. PTPs are cell signaling molecules that play regulatory roles in a variety of cellular processes. PTPs in this class contain a protein tyrosine phosphatase catalytic domain and a characteristic C-terminal prenylation motif. This PTP has been shown to primarily associate with plasmic and endosomal membrane through its C-terminal prenylation. This PTP was found to interact with the beta-subunit of Rab geranylgeranyltransferase II (beta GGT II), and thus may function as a regulator of GGT II activity. Overexpression of this gene in mammalian cells conferred a transformed phenotype, which suggested its role in tumorigenesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. Related pseudogenes exist on chromosomes 11, 12 and 17.

Function. Protein tyrosine phosphatase which stimulates progression from G1 into S phase during mitosis. Promotes tumors. Inhibits geranylgeranyl transferase type II activity by blocking the association between RABGGTA and RABGGTB.
Subunit / interactions. In contrast to PTP4A1 and PTP4A3, does not interact with tubulin. Interacts with RABGGTB.
Subcellular location. Cell membrane. Early endosome. Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels in skeletal muscle, heart and thymus. Overexpressed in prostate tumor tissue.
Post-translational modifications. Farnesylated. Farnesylation is required for membrane targeting and for interaction with RABGGTB. Unfarnesylated forms are redirected to the nucleus and cytosol.
Activity regulation. Inhibited by sodium orthovanadate and pentamidine.
Miscellaneous. A processed pseudogene with 96% sequence identity was found in the BRCA1 (113705) region of 17q21.
Similarity. Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family.
